According to your IGeneX test, you have been exposed to Lyme Disease. The IgG part is positive.

If you are having symptoms, I believe an LLMD would give you a diagnosis of Lyme Disease.

Can't get better than that! That is the DNA of the borrelia (Bb).

If the test result says positive, I would believe it!

Western Blot Explanation

From the above link:

"83: This is the DNA or genetic material of Borrelia burgdorferi. It is the same thing as the 93, based upon the medical literature. But laboratories vary in assigning significance to the 83 versus the 93.

93: The DNA or genetic material of Borrelia burgdorferi."

Can you explain the:
IFA, B BURGDORFERI G/M/A 1:80 TITER

Also, why would the urine test come back negative?

I believe the 31 band is specific.
Do you have symptoms? Treat if so. I'll send you a PM
